Description: Out Around The Bulloo is a unique collection photoghraphs depicting the landscape, history and people who call this part of remote Queensland home. Simple yet dramatic images of children at play in an adult's world, men working stock, buildings standing as they have done for a hundred years or more and tools of trade are combined with scenes of glowing sunsets, night skies, tranquil waters and curious textures. A moment in time captured, a gesture recorded - the Lancaster's have let their subjects talk and recorded their findings in an exceptional essay of work that is natural stimulating and endearing. Commonly referred to as "the corner country" its geographical isolation has not hindered its people. They are proud, friendly and gracious not only living on some of the harshest land in Australia, but living with it - nurturing resources, preserving historical icons and respecting the raw beauty the area contains.
